In my experience, Heat does not deal right with interop assemblies. And
yes, you are right: interop assemblies do not need registration entries,
they do not need any entries in the registry at all.

Subject: [WiX-users] Heat and Interop files

I have been looking at heat recently and noticed that is generates COM
registration entries for Interop files. 
 
I think this is wrong but wondered what anyone else thought. 
 
Also, is there a way to detect that a file is an Interop file. One
possibility is that Interop files contain
TypeLb\{guid}\ver\Name="PrimaryInteropAssemblyName" - is this a reliable
method of detecting them?
